Lol Germans were the same asslicking regulation-humping nerds 20 years ago that they are today. I thought they had gotten worse but nope, just more exposure.

Potato Flatmate: Did you get the receipt I left on the floor outside your door?
Me: What receipt?
Potato: You know? The 4.10€ for the cookies and candy from the supermarket, did you transfer it yet?
Me: You left a receipt on the floor outside my room, didn’t tell me about it and now expect me to send 4.10€ to your bank?
Potato: Yes exactly.
Me: Why did you not communicate to me?
Potato: I did, I left it on the floor outside your room.
Me: Well I threw it in the trash so I now have no proof of this 4,10€ you speak of...
Potato: What?!
Me: Learn to communicate potato.
This country makes me feel tired all the time. It sucks my soul off
I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I’m sick of the constant bad energy radiating from these people. I’m constantly in a argument with people here. My temper won’t allow disrespect from them so I’m always in conflict. They are so disrespectful, xenophobic, racist and rude. They are extremely boring people. Every time I have to have conversation with them I fall asleep. My energy is constantly low dealing with them. I’m depressed, bitter, angry, and have WORK PTSD from working with these jew-killing Germans.
One of the things I noticed quickly about Germany is that Germans all take themselves way too seriously. Even in casual settings, they are all always trying to be the smartest guy in the room. No chill, no self depreciation, just some kind of desperate need to appear smart.
Abother thing I noticed is that Germans hate themselves for WWII but that there is no real media support foe Germany criticism. America has its flaws, but at least there is widespread self reflection. Has there ever been a popular German documentary like Bowling for Columbine about Germany? Of course not - Germans hold firm to the belief that all evil has been excised and that modern day Germany is God's gift to the world (no irony here - they actually believe this).
its because German culture doesnt tolerate mistakes or imperfection. So they feel unless they are 100% right about anything they are a flawed human being. They are shamed into being like that its not easy for them to chill or they would be humiliated by the rest of the group
I left Berlin in November (2021) and I cannot be happier. From time to time I happen to read some Berlin-related news and I cannot bring myself to understand why I moved there. I wish you all a Berlin free 2022. Escape as soon as you can, you will experience happiness again!
LMAO on immoscout there is not even one single family home that's bigger than 100m2 for less than half a million. Who the hell bought up all the houses around berlin? 1w% of the city is on Harz4 benefits!!!
I asked one German lady to check on my cat while I’m on vacation at home.
She came to my apartment, saw some dirty cups and wrote me that they got moldy (I didn’t manage to wash them before Christmas and it was not moldy) and it’s disrespectful towards her and the cat….
I told her you’re crossing the line and leave the key. I don’t need your help. What a …. German!
funny i must have been here too long because i am not surprised..seems like the logical thing to do lol and she is doing it from a place of kindness/thinking it is the right thing. Germans like to make sure everyone else is living "correctly". They all have an inner policeman that is constantly watching you.
Is there any sure fire way yo get deported from Germany? I am white if that matters.
Sorry guys, but compared to homes in the U.S. where I am from, every German apartment I have ever seen looks like total nightmarish shit. Raufasertapete, PVC flooring, dangling bare lightbulbs. Even people with decent salaries who are settled in (living somewhere 5+ years) live worse than college kids in dorms in the U.S.. And that's norlt even mentioning how tiny the apartments here are or the lack of soundproofing. Complete garbage and getting more expensive by the day. No idea how people are ok with this. If you plan on living in Berlin until you die, then I hope you don't mind having roommates when you're 80.
I lived in Berlin for quite a while.
People were arrogant, deluded and miserable. I have never witnessed on so many occasions incidents of strangers showing utter contempt for each other. A rather hostile status quo.
In a culture where laughter and humour is absent other things manifest, this can be seen through what encapsulates Berlin most aptly ‘A love of fashion’.
One can ascertain very quickly that people take fashion and themselves very seriously and it is quite offensive to be constantly witnessing such unbridled vanity. Sort of feels a little like a breeding ground.
Upon communication it became obvious that ‘die deutschen volk’ were not at ease in conversation and even a small exchange would be telling enough for an astute person to notice; that the other was self consumed.
On learning from my experience I realised that many factors are at play: a cold climate, unappealing language, and a lack of nature.
The resulting cultural phenomena are a populous who are very formal, rigid and uptight. If you were to think of Berlin as a Bohemian and artistic Hub then you would be sorely mistaken. (Maybe 30 years ago). Think more along the lines of Life insurance, Rules and I hate to say it, Hipsters that cause revolt at an insidious level.
I also found the the Nazi vibe to be pervasive, and it sort of felt like a scene out of lord of the flies. I personally couldn’t believe that insanity could exist at such as scale.
I don’t envy anybody that lives in Berlin. If you want to spend your life being pre-consumed with things like Hype, and fashion accessories then please do go ahead, fulfil your ego. If you want to wear that red jumpsuit and backwards nike cap then you might just find yourself the coolest person there. However if you leave Berlin, then other people might find you weird.
And then on the other side you get te weirdo lefty brigade, who more conforming to their peers than the conservative people. I think these communist imbeciles need a dose of Milton Friedman. www.youtube.com/watch

LOL look at the Germans on comment section. They earn around 50k € per year and live modest life in Munich. This is their life style. In reality, they have to live like that to survive in the most strongest economy in the world LOL
Being self-aware is the step humanity took to become civilised. Before that they were just aware of their surroundings but not of themselves. Seems as if Germans are neither aware of their surroundings nor themselves. They clearly are way behind in the evolutionary process.
This is something that I have thought about. But, to be clear, not everyone’s capable of self -awareness. The problem I’ve encountered here is that I have never heard one German say, I have issues within myself I need to work on. Never heard anyone evaluate themselves. They are all perfect I guess.
F*CK THESE RETARD GERMANS! Just went to the supermarket and I felt like I went trough a war zone. Staff was stocking shelves everywhere, customers pushed trough with their shopping carts, someone behind me at the till couldn’t wait and shoved themselves to the self scanning till before I was able to pack my things and in the middle of all this some German c*unt pushed one of these trolleys into me so I pushed it back towards her. Hopefully I hurt her
